Eh, just a few tweaks to make it aesthetically perfect (for me). It'd be nice for it to have come stock like that, but it's not that big of a deal to correct.

I'm also wondering if there are any aftermarket grills that are identical to what's on the Bullitt but instead are fully open and feature a mesh pattern, as opposed to the standard honeycomb pattern with the odd little cut-out.

Well, they could have just passed the cost on to the consumer - it wouldn't have been THAT much for crying out loud.

But your render is superb - proper wheels, tire width, and ride stance; twin vented hood; louvers; and HIPS! I'd have bought that car in a heartbeat, Ford, and I'll wager the overwhelming response would have been positive...and that customers would have been lining up like they did for the GT500.

Doug should tell the story of the rendering he provided Ford a couple of years back. The emblemless grille and the chrome around it was Doug's suggestion. It is no coincidence the '08 BULLITT is the first Mustang in over 25 years to have a front grille without a Ford or Pony emblem.

Kind of like them selling forged, polished aluminum 18" Marauder wheels as an option for '08 V6 Mustangs.
